Srsly Risky Biz: WeChat's Privacy Policy Is Useless
Presented by

In this podcast Patrick Gray and Tom Uren talk about Citizen Lab’s analysis of WeChat’s behaviour and its privacy policy. That report misses the point: WeChat is an integral part of the PRC’s architecture of censorship and repression, and the Chinese government isn’t constrained by WeChat’s privacy policy.
They also discuss a new report that proposes a human-centred framework for assessing client-side Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) detection technologies. It’s a step forward because it makes clearer the tradeoffs that are being made when these technologies are suggested.
